  1. Some pigs think they are more equal than other pigs.
  2. Shibboleths aside, few of us are knee biters. However, there are those among us that develope a taste for the tendens of the knee. They are generally small of stature and have little standing in the community even though a bite to the back of the knee can be quite crippling.
  3. Perhaps you worriers should check out the different cemetery customs around America. You might well be surprised to find out all that happens in cemeteries. Not too many weddings though. Would I put a cache in Arlington? Yes! How about starting a muti in Robert E. Lee's front yard, where Union forces decided to bury their fallen brothers? Think of all that we could learn about what America really means. Things like; fidelity, honor, bravery, sacrifice, duty and patriotism. Just because we walk around with a GPS in our hands does not mean that we are irreverent. And the ground is no more hallowed at Arlington than it is in Forest Cemetery in Toledo, Ohio. Two Medal of Honor recipients rest there at their final post. Both are mentioned in Gumption Stumption. Who could stand at their graves and not be in awe? If you choose to seek The Duke of Tralee you will learn a lot about Hall of Famer Roger Bresnahan. Just around the corner is Medal of Honor recipient John S. Kountz, Musician, Company G, 37th Ohio Infantry who put down his instrument and took up a musket at Missionary Ridge. For you who, for one reason or another, are worried about caches in cemeteries, stay out. Cache somewhere else. [Kant spel.]
  4. The hardest thing to turn is a human crank.
  5. Don't let the SOB live rent free in your head. Move on.
  6. To be politically correct, I am geochallenged.
  7. The OGP uses $1 flashlights. You can buy a lot of batteries for the price of a shake-n-bake.
  8. Remember Geocachers, we must be politically correct! To publish the name of a government bureaucrat could be construed to hold said bureaucrat responsible for that which he (or, she) included in his (or, her) correspond-dance. The Geocaching chain of command will protect us! Don't get involved. Some poor soul might get the wrong idea.
  9. It is a privilege to geocache, not a right. There is no accountability and anyone can choose to hide behind their chosen mask, just as I am hiding behind this one. With the animinity of the mask the rude and the crude can say anything and be anyone without the worry of scrutiny. If that is your persona you are welcome to it.
